RE: The tariff classification of automobile wheel covers from
Taiwan
Dear Ms. Bonace:
In your letter dated July 29, 1992 you requested a tariff
classification ruling. You have submitted a sample of the
product.
The imported products are automobile wheel covers (Blair
product no. 6260). The wheel covers are sold as a set of four.
The wheel covers are available in three sizes: 13 inches, 14
inches and 15 inches. The products are made of ABS plastic and
are painted with an automotive grade paint.
The applicable subheading for the automobile wheel covers
(Blair product no. 6260) will be 8708.70.8060, Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for wheel
covers and hubcaps for vehicles of subheading 8701.20 or heading
8702, 8703, 8704 or 8705. The rate of duty will be 3.1 percent
ad valorem.
As you requested the sample will be returned to your office.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
